Ehe Board of Railroad Commits
siOners Does Not Feel Called Upon
Vet to stop the Practice.
An interesting letter was written by the
board of railroad commissioners to the Page
Flour mills. of Fergus Falls, yesterday, on
the question of continuing the practice of
milling in transit. The letter is formula.
ton of the conclusions reached by the COM
mission after a conference with Northern
Pacific officials. The commission says
The reason the commission has not made
any formal decision in the matter is that
there has been 70 complaint filed requiring
an investigation and decision by the board
upoE the merits of a controversy. The board
is not called upon in this matter to suspend
the action of what is commonly called the
''long and short haul provision of the
state law (secton 6 of the act of the
last leglslaturc), or to adjudicate any contro-
versy under any other provision of the act.
When the attention of the board was called
to the subject by the Northern Pacific Rail-
road company and your former communica-
ton, we gave notice of time and place
where we would receive any complaint or
hear any objection to the continuation of the
practice known as "milling in transit" if
any such complaint any one should see fit TO
make, or should any person desire to be heard
in opposition to the continuance of the Sys-
TEN. NO one lntefp0Sed complaint or as! e !
to be heard in opposition. So there being
no case made before the board calling for a
specific order, or determination between con-
tending parties, we felt called upon only TO
say i'll general way, and in such
II manner as TO secure publication
through the public press, as we sup
posed, that as nobody complained,
after due and public notice, the board did not
feel called upon TO interfere and would make
no order concerning the method of doing
business between the common carriers ard
the millerS OF the state go long as it was
mutually satisfactory. We understand from
the statements of the traffic managers APP
pearing for the companies represented at the
time set for the hearing, and from other
sources, that the transit system is entirely
voluntary-whut is known as flat rate
| being given the shipper in all cases in lieu of
| transit, if he 50 desires. So long as this is
the case the board will probably not feel con-
| strained to interpose of its own motion, but
| it will not hold that there has been any such
| trial or hearing as 10 preclude the raising OF
| the question upon complaint at any time. or
| the making Of an order or decision hereafter,
| which the situation may seem to require.

Articles were filed with the secretary of
state yesterday incorporating the Metropol-

it Is obviously incorporated for the purpose
of giving West st. Paul and South st. Paul
motor line system. According
to the document, the general
nature of its business shall be
the acquiring of, constructing, equipping
and operating lines Of railroad of the
standard and narrow-ga gauge and propelled
by steam and other power, within the
counties of Ramsey and Dakota. The gen.
eral Office will be st. Paul, and the amount
of capital stock is fixed at 81, 200. 600.
Maurice Auerbach, Albert Scheifer,
l.. Ii. Maxiield, Paul Martin, George
l.. Beardsee and j. j. McCardy are
the incorporatOrs and the first board of
directors. The capital stock is divided into
10, 600 shares of 500 each. The board of

Conversation last evening with gentle
man who Is in a position to know whereof
he speaks brought out the fact that the pro-
posed line is not newspaper road, but that
1t will be built in the near future. although
the plans are not yet fully matured. All
of the incorporators are owners of
property through which the proposed
motor line will pass, and as it

Testimony ut the Fort Smelling
Court Martial az TO Lieut.. wilcox.
Character.
During the past two days the court
martial case of Lieut.. Wilcox has pro-
crossed very rapidly, and will be concluded
to day. After Offering the plea of guilty"
to the five charges and their specification he
began the Introduction Of evidence as to his
previous character. So far three witnesses
have been heard on this point and their
testimony is all to the effect that Lieut..
Wilcox has borne an enviable name in the
service. His captain has said that
he considered him most excel
lent officer both on duty and
in other relations, and that he would not
exchange him for any other lieutenant in
the Seventh cavalry" Lieut.. Devoll of
Smelling. who has long known the accused
at Fort Meade, testified as to having money
relations with him, and said that he had al
ways been scrupulous in the discharge of
any obligations incurred. 1t is point to
be noticed that Lieut.. Wilcox has not
called any witnesses from distance hut
has called only those who happen to be in
the city or at the post. The witnesses to-
day will testify as to the condition of the
IleutellduJ WuGll uHucI Jilo INFLUENCE OF
liquor. Some testimony has already been
offered on this point, and it APP
pears to be the common judgment
OF his acquaintance that while drink
ing and for some time after, he is not ac-
countable for what he does. The evidence
on this point is strong. His gentlemany
manners, kindness and generosity have
been favorably commented upon by the
witnesses. So far it seems that the case is
totally different from those deliberate
swindles which have been practiced OH
the government in many of which the de-
lnquents have escaped unframed and have
been afterwards taken into confidential re-
lations with officers in high command.

A Word About Catarrah.

sit is the mucous membrane, that wonderful
semi-fuid envelope surrounding the delicate It's

makes its stronghold. Once established, it eats

cold in the head, 1t assaults the membraneous
lining and envelopes the bones, eating through
the delicate coats and causing inflammation,

AMUsENu EMIT NOTES.

1t was an amateur company and an lnl-
mature performance at the Grand last night,
being rather an unsatisfactory effort of the
Minneapolis Amateur Opera company to
produce Adolph Grethen's equally I'M
satisfactory comic opera. which has
been designated The Manitou'
In eXtenHationl of the company's
failure to acquit itself with usual
credit it is fair to say that some OF the
leading members of the cast. as we'll as of
the chorus, went off to attend wedding in
stead of coming forward to fulfill their con-
tract with the public by singing in the
opera advertised for last night. 1t is also
fair to say iii eXtenuation of this delin-
quency of the absent members of the COLI
pany that they sang in ''ManitOu" once and
were perfectly justiliable in not wanting to
sing in it again. AS musical creation

takes more of the qualities of Sullivan the

criticism is not intended to discourage the
amateur company, which really includes
some most excellent musical and dramatic
talent in its cast. 1t is simply to sugges
to them that hereafter they be more careful
in the selection of their operas, and that if
they expect public patronage the members
must rehearse their parts and make 1t a
point to fulfill their engagements. Other
